Bork got "borked" because of his views on abortion. Period. Why else would his video rental history be leaked?

No, Bork got borked because he was an out-of-touch and out-of-whack fool.

But if you want to keep defending a fool, I won't stop you.

Let's see, he went to the University of Chicago, was the U.S. Soliciter General, sat on the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals (arguably the most influential appeallate court) was nominated to be a Supreme Court justice, and is currently a law professor. Size up your Red Fork Oklahoma resume to that and see who the "fool" is.

I am not defending anyone, particularly Bork since I believe the right to privacy can be inferred from the fourth, fifth, ninth, and fourteenth amendments. I was pointing out that merely opposing abortion is not so outrageous as to deny a sitting president's choice. Hell, Reagan's nominee Douglas Ginsberg was forced to withdraw for...wait for it...wait for it...you guessed it, smoking grass. Being a pothead is apparently so outrageous that you cannot be a justice, but being an admitted pothead and cokehead, not so much to be president.

RW, you are dangerously close to going full retard, again.

Wilbur,

If she wasn't a Hispanic who has a vagina - would she have gotten the appointment?  The answer is no.  Her race and her sex are the reason she was chosen over a litany of other people.


Sparty,

Help put Clearance Thomass in the right context.....

He would be different from Thurgood Marshall by that logic?

1) you are NOT Spartacus

2) you can't compare Thomass with Marshall....your perspective and time periods are whack.

3) Hint: If he wasn't a black man who was an Uncle Tom would he ever have gotten an appointment?

Judge Sotomayor rejected a claim that a New York ban on a martial arts weapon (a nunchuka) violated a man's Second Amendment rights, explaining the Second Amendment only applies to the federal government. In this case, Maloney v. Cuomo, the court noted that the Supreme Court's ruling in District of Columbia v. Heller, which struck down parts of the District's gun control law, did not invalidate this principle, and "to the extent that Heller might be read to question the continuing validity of this principle," earlier Supreme Court rulings took precedence in the case.


So she's saying the second amendment only applies at the federal level?


Just some Canon Fodder, Conan.

Just play the race/ethnic card if someone disagrees.


When the White House says they dare the GOP to turn down an Hispanic female, who's playing the race card?

Hispanic refers to an ethnic group. Puerta Rican is not a race. Besides, where do you get this racist bs?

Ummm, she seems to imply she's a woman of color and implies her ethnicity makes her a superior jurist:

"... I further accept that our experiences as women and people of color affect our decisions"

Right, Justice Marshall wasn't an Uncle Tom because he was nominated by Johnson, thanks for reminding me.  Different time, different context.  I keep forgetting it's not racism or pandering when Dimocraps do it.

Does the name "Sotomayor" kind remind anyone of "Robocop"?

Okay back to our highly-charged discussion.

Conan, please insert the entire quote. It's out of context. So are you.

Marshall was brilliant, the real deal while Clarence perverted the process of appointing a member to SCOTUS. He too had coke (with hair, evidently)...

Yeah, cuz the Supreme Court is dominated by hispanics and females.... not.
